Several folks at the Northumberland Photography club (NPC) including myself, were having problems when their images appeared very small when projected at club events.  As well, some Windows  users were not able to detach imbedded images sent by Mac Mail Users.  This depended on which version of Outlook the Windows users had.   Mac users can get around this problem using the following instructions:Mac Mail to Windows User Instructions

Its handy to have a note created on either a Mac or iPhone transfer to the other device using Synchronization.  For now Apple appears to rely on iTunes (not Mobile Me) to manage this or you can search for 3rd party tools.  Here is how to do it in iTunes.

Create Note from a Mac: Use Mail application > File > New Note.  Create the contents of the note in any manner you wish.  Loading an address actually opens the Maps app on the phone and a URL will open iPhone Safari app.  Images display a paper clip, presumably they are still attached but not displayed.

Create Note from iPhoneUse the iPhone Note app.  Create notes in any manner.

To Setup Synchronization: With the iPhone connected to the Mac, use iTunes, click on the iPhone device in the left column. Then select the Info tab.  Check ‘Sync notes’.  This is required for Mobile Me users as well, since Mobile Me does not sync Notes.

To Sync: Connect the iPhone to the Mac, start iTunes and click on the iPhone.  Click the Sync button in the bottom right corner.

Final Thought: Although this is not a very elegant solution, it does work.  Hopefully Apple with sync notes using MobileMe some day.

If anyone finds a simpler method, please let me know. I would prefer not to use iTunes which is really clunky.
